The Non Profit Organisation helps underprivileged kids in South Africa that there is another way of life. H2H also supports other non profit organisations. Why I started this Foundation:
Before I started my sports science study in Graz 2012, I worked voluntarily in South Africa, Cape Town. I operated there as a sport & education teacher at Hyde Park Primary School, just as well as a surf & sport instructor for children from poor ratios. I thought: "If I'm in South Africa, I want to donate and help them". So I held many lectures at different schools plus a charity concert. People donated over € 3,000. With this donation I supported 11 children - which I knew from my surf-lessions - who live in a township called Lavender Hill in South Africa. I bought them shoes plus necessary garments. Equally I provided the Surfing Foundation " Kulu Manzi " with new surfboards and the Hyde Park Primary School with necessary materials. Through my journey I have noticed and recognized that to help others has not only made me happy, but also sparked deep gratitude in me. There were alot of moving moments: Especially to know that through my work & presence people (mainly the kids) they got a new view of life and try everything to live this life full of abundance of love, gratitude & peace – trying to get away of all the poverty, crime, drugs, ...
During the trip I saw how happy the people were despite their poverty. It was frustrating to see that the people were not so grateful and happy at home, although we are concerned much much better in Austria.
